They are scraping the barrel of grievances, we’re at lipgloss level now.


LOL! That was a weird thing to include....I don't know a single 40 year old woman who would ask to borrow lip gloss from another woman.

A lot of the little stories that they shared in the Netflix doc and in the book make me think Meghan does this stuff on purpose. "I hug!" "I wear ripped jeans!" "I talk to my girlfriends like this!"......just feels like she purposely tried to push the envelope to create some narrative of stuffy Brit vs. cool American.


I wonder if the palace is breathing a sigh of relief. They are going to come out winners in all this now that people are seeing what they were dealing with. They don't need to even say anything. The books speaks volumes about Harry, and not in the way he probably hoped.



+1 I'm shocked at how trashy and petty the details are.


Same. I’d guess the palace PR folks are thinking “just keep talking” at this point. Because the more they talk, the worse they come off.


This exactly.

Nelson Mandela’s granddaughter also just blasted them for profiteering from his legacy. What a disaster these two are.

It's laughable, actually. H and M's treatment fits that pattern and is why I believe it. Good for them for giving them the middle finger.


Same. I think a lot of people aren't royal watchers aside from "let's see the wedding dress" are hearing the most recent stuff and think Harry's the good guy.

Royal watchers aren't normal and have to accept that the majority of people aren't enthralled by these people the way they are.

The majority of people I have seen online are like me - not royal family watchers or supporters at all but we started seeing Harry and meghan headlines everywhere = both promoting their stuff and reporting on their stuff and started reading and listening to things. I am sure there are a few ardent RF supporters who don't think the RF can do any wrong but I dont give a fig about the RF and Harry comes across as an immature and petty man. I don't really care about Harry and Meghan either but content on them is being shoved in our faces online 24/7. They are digging their own graves.

Invictus isn’t a faux charity and he wasn’t bragging about his “kills” from the excerpt I saw. He was just saying that he was doing what he was ordered to do and that he had to detach from the reality of killing someone by not seeing his kills as “humans.” Which is how soldiers get through the day.

+1 Especially in this day and time. "Suck it up and move forward" is not encouraged. Sharing every detail of being wronged, mistreated, and misunderstood has become a popular narrative.


People have their limits. The tables eventually turn and the victims become the oppressors.


The tables are turning on M and H. Most of us are sick to death of their "victimhood" stories.

I'd rather have people think I'm cold and uptight than childish and petty.

This is where I am. And it's a shame, because I think the legitimate and important points (racism of British press, inherent difficulties of institutional hierarchies within families) and being buried by all the small-minded petty vindictive stuff. I mean, lip gloss and hug failures? Smdh.

If Harry was really concerned about his family's security....he just did more to endanger them than anything that happened in the past.

I wonder if the palace is breathing a sigh of relief. They are going to come out winners in all this now that people are seeing what they were dealing with. They don't need to even say anything. The books speaks volumes about Harry, and not in the way he probably hoped.

Agree. I don't understand the sentiment that people who find H&M tiresome and annoying are RF supporters. I admit I like the gossip around the RF, but by no means study or support them. On the other hand, I do get fed up with people who constantly are disgruntled with their lives, seem to think other people owe them, and always place the blame on others. I call my kids out all the time when they start in on the "woe is me" behavior.
